Have a read of this: http://www.guardian.co.uk/money/2009/may/23/tesco-consumer-guarantee I had one of those tvs from them which broke after two years. the plug at the back literally exploded. One of my landlords electricians took a look at it and said the plug at the back doesnt fit correctly and moves about hence the explosion!!!!

People need help 24/7. Its great to see so many people giving up their time on every day and at weird hours to offer help and support. I just find it addictive having received help and now trying to give something back. ims

Yes, says Martins Highly authoritative And I'm only authoritative, oh well better pull my socks up

Hi Openscreen I have the same prolem with Barclays, my overdraft was being dealt with by a DCA; I had loads of threat letters, phone calls etc; eventually after finding CAG I sent them a SAR's request letter and managed to get all the data they held on me including whether the O/D had been sold on (it hadn't) or not. You are right CCA's do not cover C.Cards but a SAR's request will give you the information you need, it will cost you £10 but will hopefully give you the time you need to figure out how best to deal with your financial problems and keep those DCA's off your back while it is being dealt with. Very easy to say 'don't

If you hover your mouse over your green blobs it will tell you.

Hi there If it was me I wouldn't bother the the dca but this is up to you. If you do decide to get in touch with them, make sure everything is in writing and not via the phone. If you are going to start claiming back back charges etc you need to start to keep a paper trail of events. For the SAR, you only need to do one because both accounts are with the same bank. Hence you only need one fee. The SAR will contain a request that they should supply everything they hold in connection with your dealngs with them on ANY and ALL accounts that have been held with them. ims
